Generative Bionic Secures €70 Million Financing With Tether Backing to Advance Physical AI Humanoid Robots

Generative Bionic, the Italian humanoid robotics company, has secured a €70 million financing round, according to The Block. The round includes strategic contributions from Tether, AMD Ventures, and a government-backed AI fund. The deal underscores growing investor interest in AI-enabled robotics.

Launched just last year, the firm is developing physical AI humanoid systems designed to operate in human-centric settings, performing handling, lifting, and repetitive tasks that challenge traditional robotic arms.

The financing bears strategic implications for robotics hardware and automation software, signaling alignment with enterprise clients seeking cost-efficient, scalable automation solutions.

Proceeds will support scaling, R&D, and regulatory readiness under the Italian AI fund and related programs.
